The elephant, named Harvey, had been transported to the sanctuary after it’d been found, starving and abused, in a bankrupt (both financially and morally) zoo.
The Head Keeper was all too aware of the need to establish trust but to also do it with his safety in mind. He had Harvey placed in one enclosure with an adjoining enclosure set up. He made sure to be seen by Harvey as he brought out food. Once it was placed, he exited and Harvey was allowed in, where he ate voraciously.
Months later, a few individuals were able to play with Harvey.
